If you run the marketing department of a manufacturing company, the answer is probably a resounding &#8220;yes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This infographic \u2013 Part 1 of a 2-part series \u2013 takes a look at how engineers\u00a0approach content. In particular, it explores which content they consume during the Buyer Journey and where they consume it. You&#8217;ll see how the Journey is broken down into four phases: Research, Consideration, Evaluation, and Buy. And content is consumed differently in each phase.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s likely no surprise that Case Studies\u00a0are consumed more heavily in an engineer&#8217;s decision-making process earlier in the Buyer Journey. Or that Product Info Sheets are more influential later in the process.<\/p>\n<p>But it&#8217;s worth\u00a0noting how different types of video work better in different phases.\u00a0And just how much engineers prefer LinkedIn over other social platforms. Take a look at the full infographic to get a better look at the engineer&#8217;s decision-making process.
